The Haunted 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon in Little Rock takes place in October, starting at Two Rivers Park Road. All four races begin at 8:00 AM, offering distances from a 5K to a full marathon on the same asphalt course. Registration is managed via RunSignup; there is no race-day registration at the start. The course features out-and-back segments instead of a point-to-point design.

A six-hour cutoff applies, particularly relevant for the marathon where the repeated laps emphasize pacing and endurance.

This autumn road race offers a half marathon, 10K, 5K, Fun Run, and virtual participation.

The Race the Base Trail Run encircles Pinnacle Mountain State Park in central Arkansas, west of Little Rock. Fall trail races are based around the park’s Base Trail and Monument Trail system. The event offers a 4-mile loop, a Monumental Half Marathon of approximately 13 miles, and a free Kingfisher Kids Run for children 12 and under. The start is at Stuckey Field near Barrett Road and Highway 300, across from the park entrance in Roland. It includes a Halloween theme, with runners encouraged to wear costumes and prizes awarded for crowd-favorite costumes post-race. The 4-mile course begins on gravel, briefly transitions to a paved path, then follows rocky, technical singletrack around the mountain’s base for most of its latter half. Its defining challenge is Joe’s Revenge, a steep climb of about 200 feet over one third of a mile, with King and Queen of the Mountain awards for the fastest climbers. The half marathon incorporates more of the Monument Trails and includes rolling climbs, rugged singletrack, and technical trail sections. The field is limited to about 250 runners, creating a community trail gathering atmosphere rather than a large road race.

At Pinnacle Mountain State Park in Roland, Arkansas, this November trail event is structured around a single 3.1-mile loop. Runners begin a new circuit on the hour and can continue for any duration. Completing one loop registers as a 5K, two as a 10K, four as a half marathon, nine as a marathon, and ten as a 50K. Each lap is timed, with final standings determined by the number of loops completed and the total time. The course follows natural park terrain, returning participants to a central area each hour. This design simplifies pacing and support, offering hydration, basic nutrition, and crew access between laps. The format also eliminates the typical pressure of endurance events; there are no DNFs for early stops, no missed cutoffs, and every completed loop is officially recorded. EverFurther Events organizes the series, employing this loop format instead of distinct fixed-distance starts.
